The cousins had a great time playing together the other day and these are a few pictures of their fun! It doesn't take much to entertain them...they all just love being together and get along remarkably well! We are so glad to have the Lanes back in our neck of the woods so we can have these impromptu playdates again!

Pajama Time

I wish I could find my picture of Bradley in these same pj's! I love these little "Hugh Hefner" style jammies that button down the front. They are just too cute on Trent and were precious on Brad!

The other night, our church had it's Fall Festival. All the kids wore their costumes and there were games, hotdogs, sno-cones, popcorn and there was supposed to be a hayride, pony ride and a fire truck. However, this was the worst night of weather and rain imaginable, which completely ruined any outdoor plans. So, it ended up being a little congested inside, but the kids didn't seem to notice. We loved getting to spend the time with Wendy, Juj and Alex also.

Callie is in Bradley's pre-k class this year.

Isabelle, Callie's older sister, was in Rachel's pre-k class.

Last Friday, Bradley's pre-k class had their Harvest Party. The moms who organized it did a great job...really cute, tasty snacks, some adorable little crafts and some yummy-smelling, homemade pumpkin play-doh to play with. When Rachel, Trent and I got there, Bradley was already eating a cupcake next to his buddy, Mark. He was excited about being there and seemed to enjoy himself until he just decided he was ready to go home because he was tired. It's always fun for me to see the kids in the class and watch how they interact with each other. At this age, there's alot of ignoring each other and sticking with mom and dad. All the kids in the class wore their Halloween costumes and looked absolutely adorable. Even some siblings wore their costumes. Trent particularly liked one sibling who was dressed like a tiger...he kept walking up to her and hugging her from behind. She didn't really know what to think.

We love MHPA and are so thankful to have Ms. Jan and Ms. Kim again as pre-k teachers. They are still just as sweet and kind as they were when Rachel was in their pre-k class...and they're so kind and inclusive of her since she's the oldest sibling who attends anything. Bradley's really thriving and learning so much at school. He loves it and really seems to just be opening up more and more each day. We love our Bradley-poo and are so proud of the sweet, kind boy that he is!!

Trick-or-treating!

Finished!!

This year was an extra-fun Halloween because the Lanes are baaaaacckk!!!!! Both sets of grandparents came over tonight to see the kiddos in their costumes and even Grammy drove up from Bainbridge to see Juj and Alex and visit with us for a little bit. It was a great time filled with GREAT food (thanks mom and Deb!!) and super cute kids! We went to our usual neighborhood and had so much fun trick or treating! Trent loved trick or treating even though he did NOT want to wear his costume! I'm so glad I got a couple of good pictures of him in it the other night, because he wasn't having ANY of it tonight! Rachel and Bradley enjoyed every minute and really racked up on candy this year. It was such a fun evening! Now I'm just going to have to decide what we're going to do with all this candy...we sure don't need to eat it all!!!!!

Happy Halloween-2010!

This is a picture of the kids before we went to the Fall festival at our church the other night. They got to wear their costumes and play games, eat good food and play. And, it was a bonus that Wendy, Juj and Alex came too! Lots more pictures to come after the much anticipated trick or treating happens!
